What the hell is up with modern speech turning into newspeak straight out of 1984? The word "ungood" genuinely wouldn't look too out of place with all the neologisms I just listed.

Unalive is the only one that sticks out in regards to what you are saying. The rest is just alpha/zoomer slang. "Peak" is just "sick", "mid" is just "wack", "slop" is just "garbage", and "crash out" is just "raging".

>>24850324
Hes retarded and probably a zoomer too who has never existed before this time, so he doesnt know that theyre just modern versions of those words because he hasnt existed long enough.

>>24850309 (OP)
>unalive
This one is just people trying to avoid having their posts flagged on instagram and stuff, I've never heard anyone say it irl and I would assume they were joking if I did. And I swear peak and slop originated on 4chan, or we were at least very early adopters

>>24850309 (OP)
I have found it conceptually satifying that the "median" (mid) has become the center point for the uneventful. rather than "shit" or "low". It is not longer about a linear progress of betterment, but of the two extremes of the infinite, infinitely large and small in quality and quantity.

>>24850309 (OP)
Dear god, the children are speaking in colloquialisms!?!? This is unprecedented, I can not believe this is happening

unalive only exists because if you say "murdered" "killed" or "suicide" algorithms censor you so no one sees your post. I've seen news platforms say "gen" because they get censored if they talk about the "genocide" in Palestine.

What's even worse are corporate shills trying to push the "uh actually it's a leetspeak revival, they're just sticking it to the man bro", when the actual solution is to leave the platforms that censor speech

What in Heaven’s name is become of our language, that it should dwindle into this new projected speech, as foretold by Swift? Soon enough we’ll be saying ill good in earnest, as it'd be good company among these new coinages.

They also use it on private servers or chats

haha OP I love froggo XD

Recently saw a video censor the words "nuclear warfare" as "nuc***r w***are" I wish I was kidding.

>>24850309 (OP)
This is flash in the pan slang for the poorly educated of today.
It is language simplified as much as, currently, possible. This is in order to permit the full spectrum of IQs in this group communication among each other while limiting their ability to express complex thoughts to avoid possible rebellion.

it's a fucking WINCE.

The censoring of all these topics is veering close to forced positivity. That’s what the companies want after the backlash against social media harms. They want 8 billion cattle bleating about positive things as they consume their ads. “Serious talk” goes in the modern memory hole of shadowbans and low visibility classing. How far is that really from a totalitarian regime censoring reality?
I’m sick of the gaza shit but censoring mentions of genocide whole hog is so blatantly evil it’s crazy to see people accept it. Meanwhile the Bongs openly talk about loving censorship and wanting more of it. “Problem” opinions literally get policed. Amerifats have a choir of conservatives saying they want to ban opinions and protest. Cheeto himself argues being critical of the president or regime is unlawful. Of course libshits shouldn’t be too smug since their politicians also love opinion censoring just different opinions. Cue the whole trans debate for instance.

Actual free speech online was an anomaly they are desperate to control or shut down.

That's what I thought too, maybe cook/cooked would fit also

>>24850324
And of those, "unalive" is pushed because social media will throw up red flags if you say "die" in any context.

>>24850334
To my knowledge, slop (or goyslop) originated on /fit/ to make fun of unhealthy, highly processed fast food. The cause was noble, I noticed a decrease in consumption of fast food in myself when I started thinking of it as goyslop.
Then it spread to /v/, people started calling cinematic AAA games goyslop, which is pretty deserved desu. But then people dropped goy and went full retard with it. I've seen people use indieslop, parryslop, difficultyslop, which runs counter to its original usage - it's no longer about pointing out Jewish tricks in making everything low standards, it's just shorthand for "thing I don't like".
That, and it's also applied to AI slop, which I'm fine with as it's congruent with the original usage of goyslop. Though it feels weird to see the word used in mainstream media.

>>24851842
You're right but this isn't the first or last or even significant cultural asset of 4chan to go mainstream. Culture mostly starts here because everything else is fake. Although in recent years, since x became racist really, 4chan no longer holds the same power.

>>24851842
Incel used to mean "guy who wants sex and relationships but can't get them" now it just means "guy with opinion i don't like"

>>24850309 (OP)
Aside from what >>24850324 accurately pointed out, the irony of your post is that it contains the real newspeak: low effort reaction memes. Look at this very thread:
>>24850844
>>24850969
>>24850988
People post this particular sort of shit, the pepes and wojacks and their countless spinoffs, as a substitute for language. Rather than enunciate your feelings, you find the closest cartoon approximation and post that instead. Every time you do this, you are actively training your brain to approximate rather than define these abstract things like feelings and emotions. I'm sure that many people have noticed that it's always the dumbest posters who rely on these things - there's a reason why "frogposter" is used as a slur. For the more normalfag version, emojis serve a similar if less damaging function.

Now just imagine how much worse things must be for kids who grew up with this shit, who learned to send wojack faces and emojis at one another before they learned to properly identify and explain their feelings and emotions. These things perform the intended function of newspeak, that being to reduce the range of thoughts and concepts available to a person. The reason the people posting this shit always seem so retarded is because they actually are. They have, via years of this behavior, actively trained themselves to be less articulate.

>>24851842
>To my knowledge, slop (or goyslop) originated on /fit/ to make fun of unhealthy, highly processed fast food.
It's absolutely wild to see people on the literature board who think that 4chan invented common words simply because I suppose this was the first place they encountered them. Low quality food being described as slop and that meaning being applied to non-food items is something that well predates 4chan.

Only election tourist reddit expat scum get sincerely butthurt about people using pepe as a reaction image.

>>24852069
I'm not upset at all, just taking the time to explain a trend I've noted. That said, thank you for providing a perfect example of what I was talking about. Take a look at this post. Every single word is a learned behavior, a mindless regurgitation of the expected response to an expected stimulus. There's nothing resembling human thought here. A bot could spend a few minutes combing the site and produce this exact post word for word.

Any oldfag will tell you that the quality of posts on 4chan has declined over time. They'll argue about why it declined over time but I offer that the rise of "reaction image" culture is a prime reason. This guy disagrees with my post but he can't explain why, not exactly. He just knows that he likes posting frogs and he doesn't like people suggesting that it's a negative trait. If he hadn't fried his capacity for reasoned thought then he might have been able to provide an actual response or rebuttal to my post. Instead, he strung together some buzzwords and attached a frog. Good enough, right?

And every time he does this instead of using his brain, his ability to think for himself declines a little bit more.

Isn't slop just a derivative from stuff like a sloppy joe? Which is just a type of sandwich.

>>24852082
i am not trying to fight you or the frogposting anon, but we are on an image board, and yes just posting some frog doesnt make the text any better, just posting some Morgan Freeman pointing and sayin fact doesnt make the post any more true, but what the fuck are you talking about with "rise of reaction image cultur" on an image board. I mean, the reaction images that were used before pepe werent any better, in the earlier days board culture was atleast as cringe as now, just in a different layout. There have always been posts with some low effort polemic text and a smug image attached to it, whether it was an anime girl or some shitty screenshot from an old videogame. It is the purpose of a board like this to underline your post in any way with an image to either underline your points made, add some humoristic twist to the text with visual aid or to give more information.

>>24850309 (OP)
Its not that deep unc

>slang exists
>anon loses his mind

I don't care about whatever slang that arises organically, part of getting older is finding the younger generations ridiculous and stupid, but terms like "unalive" that arise from censorship or gaming the algorithm make me rage. The Internet is now a literal mind control device.

>>24852067
>invented common words
The point of contention is not the invetion of the word, but invention and spread of it's use in a particular meaning. As far as I know, Tolkien and Lewis did not call contemporary pulp literature or even cheap food "slop".

> that meaning being applied to non-food items is something that well predates 4chan
Provide some examples.

>>24852264
Slop predates 4chan by a long shot. Never heard of slopping pigs? "Slop" was all your edible food waste and leftovers given to the hogs.. which was then applied as a pejorative to any shitty food.. the fuck are you invoking Tolkien for?

Goyslop is certainly a 4chan invention, tho

>>24852267
Wait I just read your post..

Still.. definitely applied to non-food stuff prior to 4chan. My great-grandma would call the TV the "idiot box" and claim it was full of slop.

>>24852267

Anon if "slop" already was being commonly used in it's current fashion and meaning decades ago, then you should have no issue providing at least a few examples of such use in publications, literature, other media, etc.

All the technical mambo jambo aside basically what he is saying it's getting simpler and more retarded like that.

>>24850309 (OP)
These are all fine and just sling like any other era. The only issue is unalive or others like it. It is a censoring of words which is beyond cringe and is being forced on people to avoid negative or bad thoughts.
